Cantilever Dental Bridge Houston

DENTAL BRIDGES

One or more missing teeth can adversely affect the function and appearance of your smile. Missing teeth can cause a change in occlusion (bite), shifting of the teeth, TMJ and other dental-related problems. The good news is that a single tooth and/or multiple missing teeth can easily be restored with a traditional dental bridge, an implant-secured bridge, or in the case of one missing tooth, it can typically be restored with one dental implant for about the same cost as a 3-unit bridge.

 

Generally speaking, a dental bridge procedure consists of reshaping the neighboring teeth, which act as the "retaining teeth", that surround the missing tooth or teeth. Crowns are then placed on these retaining teeth and attached to an artificial tooth (called a pontic). All-ceramic and crystal zirconia bridges are made by a master ceramist with the highest quality materials using a state-of-the art proprietary process until they are virtually unbreakable. Our dental bridge restoration philosophy aims to restore the missing tooth space in a therapeutic occlusion (bite) with the quality assurance of computer guided occlusion technology.

 

DENTAL BRIDGE SERVICES

As a comprehensive cosmetic, restorative and implant dental center, we offer full-service bridge and implant-retained bridge solutions for every occasion (compromised teeth, cosmetics, restoratives, bruxers, neuromuscular and full mouth restorations). Depending on your clinical needs and smile wishes, we will recommend a dental bridge (all-ceramic, crystal zirconia, cantilever, porcelain or porcelain-fused-to-metal) that best meets your needs.

 

DENTAL BRIDGE AND IMPLANT BRIDGE COSTS

The cost for a standard 3-unit bridge is comparable to that of a dental implant package which is $2750 in total, or $915 per unit, and can exceed $4000 depending on the amount of units and case type. We accept all PPO dental and medical insurance plans, and offer financing for credit qualified patients.
